Learning Objectives

  • Learn how to plug in your X profiles into CORE


What is Plugging In?

Plugging in a profile authorizes Pulsar to collect insights data on your behalf. Plugged-in X profiles pull insights directly from X Analytics.

🚨Important: Plugging in is only available for Owned Profiles as you will need to enter the profile's login credentials.


What info can I gain by plugging in X profiles?

Plugging in your X profile allows you to collect the following data in addition to the Public data already collected for both Owned and Competitor Profiles:

  • Demographics

  • Video views

  • Micro engagements


Requirements

Before plugging in your X profile, you'll need to make sure the following are in place:

  • You are logged into the correct account

  • The profile is public

  • The profile has X Analytics enabled

  • The profile must be linked to an Ads account with a funding source. The funding source can be removed after plugging in the profile.


Steps to plug in

  1. Add the Profile to your Owned Brand by following the steps listed in our Profiles article:

  2. Once added, head into the Brandset Settings and find the Brand where the Profile was added. Click the Plugin Profiles button next to the Brand name

  3. Select X

You'll be redirected to X to complete the next part of the plugging-in process

  1. Select Authorize app to give Pulsar access to your X Insights

You've now successfully linked Pulsar to your X account! You'll be taken back to the CORE Brandset Settings to finish plugging in.

  1. Select the X profile you'd like to plug in as well as the Ad account you'd like to use and click Plugin Profile

Your X profile has now been plugged into CORE and you will begin collecting private insights starting from the time when the profile was plugged in!
